Command SORM and Organization
Provide Electronic Warfare in Support of Air and Ground Forces Around the World, as Directed by the Secretary of Defense
What is ORM?
a process used to identify and manage hazards that endanger naval resources
The ORM Process
(IAMIS)
-Identify hazards
-Assess hazards
-Make risk decisions
-Implement controls
-Supervise
Classes of Mishaps
-Class A: property damage is $2 mil or more; or an injury/illness results in fatality/permanent total disability
-Class B: property/material damage is $500k or more, but less than $2 mil; or an injury/illness results in permanent partial disability; or three or more personnel are inpatient hospitalized.
-Class C: material or property damage is $50k or more, but less than $500k; a non-fatal injury/illness that causes any loss of time beyond the day occurred. (Results in 5 or more lost workdays beyond the date of injury/illness)
PPE program
established as a last line of defense in the event of equipment breakdown, failure, or hazards
Chemical Warfare and
Types of Chemical Agents
*chemical agents used in military operations to kill, seriously injure, or incapacitate
-Nerve Agents (liquid) disrupt nerve impulses while damaging body functions
-Blister Agents (liquid or solid) inflammation, blisters, and general destruction of tissues which often results in temporary blindness and/or death
-Blood Agents (gas) attack the enzymes carrying oxygen in the blood stream
-Choking Agents (gas) can cause tears, dry throat, nausea, vomiting, and headache
M9 Chemical Agent Detector Paper
Detects the presence of liquid chemical agents by turning a reddish color, it does not detect chemical agent vapors
Atropine/2-PAM-chloride Auto Injector
Used as specific therapy for nerve agent casualties
Biological Warfare
the use of agents to cause disease, sickness, or death to reduce the effectiveness of opposing combatant forces
Basic division in biological agents
*Pathogens and Toxins
- Pathogens. Include bacteria, rickettsia, viruses, fungi, protozoa and prions.
- Toxins. The categorization of toxins is based on the organisms that produce them and the physiological affects the toxins cause in humans.
x The major groupings by source are mycotoxins (which are from fungi), bacterial toxins, algal toxins, animal venoms and plant toxins.
x The primary groups based on physiological effects are neurotoxins, cytotoxins, enterotoxins and dermatoxins.
Individual Protective Equipment (IPE) for chemical/biological agent environments
- Protective mask MCU-2P with components (C-2 canister filter)
- Advanced chemical protective garment (ACPG)
- Chemical protective gloves and liners
- Chemical protective overboots and laces
- Skin decontamination kit
Radiological Warfare
the deliberate use of radiological weapons to produce widespread injury and death
Types of nuclear explosions
- High altitude air burst - occurs at altitudes in excess of 100,000 feet, with ionosphere disruptions and EMP.
- Air burst where fireball does not reach the surface. The vacuum created collects debris caused by the severe blast damage resulting in radiation fallout.
- Surface Burst has the worst fallout due to the fireball touching the surface which results in massive radioactive fallout.
- Shallow underwater burst has a small fireball and blast wave, causes large waves and water contamination.
- Deep underwater burst - similar to shallow underwater burst but with less visual effect and yields greater contaminated water.
Shipboard shielding stations are categorized as...
- Ready-shelter stations: inside the weather envelope, with access to deep shelter. Provides minimum shielding from nuclear radiation and allows the crew to remain close to battle stations.
- Deep-shelter stations: low in the ship and near the centerline. Provide max shielding from nuclear radiation, often requiring personnel to be far removed from battle stations.
DT-60 dosimeter
a non-self reading high range casualty dosimeter, when placed in a special radiac computer-indicator, determines the amount of gamma radiation to which the wearer is exposed in the 0-600 roentgens
Mission Oriented Protective Posture (MOPP)
